The first leg ended Corinthians-Universitario 1-0. All is set for the decider in this Copa Sudamericana Round of 32 fixture!
These teams have little in common geographically as Corinthians have to travel 4300 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
The hosts Universitario saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Primera Division. This match was also played here at Estadio Monumental. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Corinthians have had more rest.
Universitario form and stats
Perfect Primera Division season at home so far for Universitario 2 wins from 2 appearances.
A nice win for Universitario last time playing, versus Union Comercio. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-0 with Rivera and Herrera scoring for the victors. Guedes (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.64/10. Guedes hit the woodwork once, hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 54 successful passes (of 64 total).
Before that, a loss in the away fixture against Corinthians in the Copa Sudamericana. This is expected to be a close game, with Universitario perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Universitario as a small favourite), we find 8 games. Universitario has won 3 of these, drawn 2 and lost 3.
The manager Lurachi will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Alianza Lima in only four days.
At Estadio Monumental, Universitario has the goal stats of 4-0 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
Corinthians form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Corinthians so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 2-0-6 (win-draw-lose).
The regulars enjoyed Corinthians's previous match versus Universitario, a Copa Sudamericana win (1-0) played at home.
Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at Atletico Mineiro.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Corinthians playing away and similar expectations, we found 10 relevant matches. Results were 3 Corinthians wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats.
The attacking power of Corinthians when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 8 league matches away. Corinthians have conceded 12 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
This isn't the first time these two teams face each other this campaign, as the statistics show this recent fixture: Corinthians - Universitario 1-0.
